Modern Liberty: Business gets personal

Video of a discussion about privacy in an age where the companies we as consumers choose to do business with online - as well as some we don’t - know more about us than ever before.

Recorded 4 March 2009.

As part of the Convention on Modern Liberty, we hosted a panel to discuss privacy in an age where the companies we as consumers choose to do business with online (as well as some we don’t) know more about us than ever before. The videos below feature, first, the opening presentations and, second, the Q&A that followed. Our panellists were, from right to left, David Smith (Deputy Information Commissioner (Data Protection), ICO), Iain Henderson (founder, Mydex.org), Jim Killock (Executive Director, Open Rights Group), Caspar Bowden (Chief Privacy Adviser, Microsoft EMEA), Peter Bazalgette (Media consultant and digital investor) and Wendy Grossman (journalist, blogger and folk singer).
